Start and end a session

From the Live Class header:

1. Click Go live when class begins — status changes to Live.
2. You'll see a joined / total counter as students enter the session.
3. While live, use Join to open the linked Tutor with the Live Class panel attached (Tutor Panel → Live Class tab).
4. Click End when class wraps — status returns to Offline (you can Go live again later).

The header shows breadcrumbs back to the Classroom and linked Tutor.

Students do not auto-join when you go live. They join by opening the live class (explicit enter) or by accepting a Pull in invite. When a student Leaves, they return to the classroom (Tutor tab).

Students tab

The Students tab is your command center during a live session:

• List view — every student with join status, progress, and alerts.
• Smart Groups — clusters students by mastery or need.
• Search — find a student quickly in large classes.
• Pull in / Pull all — invite online students who haven't joined yet. Pull sends an invite; the student chooses Join or declines — it does not force them in.
• Open a student row to inspect their chat with the linked tutor in a side panel.

Presence dots show who is online (in the tutor, elsewhere, or not joined). An AI reviewing… label appears while the system grades student work against your tasks.

Other roster actions include pause access, send hint, and Post to Interactive Threads.

Tasks tab

Review and edit the session's tasks. During a live session you can track how students are progressing against each goal. Task mastery appears as circles on student rows and in the class mastery strip.

Insights tab

Open Insights for live session metrics (joined, active now, needs help, messages) and an on-demand session summary:

• Generate after the class has gone live at least once.
• The summary covers misconceptions, students who need help, and suggested next steps.

Alerts for individual students appear in the student inspector (open a row on the Students tab), with a badge on Students — not as the Insights body.

Thread tab

The Thread tab shows Interactive Threads — student-pushed conversations from the linked Tutor, useful for whole-class discussion on a projector or shared screen. Teachers can also post to the wall from the roster.

Student Controls (linked Tutor)

Live Class uses Student Controls on the Students tab (same settings as the linked tutor):

• Mute Students — block new student messages and Interactive Threads pushes.
• Request Frequency Limit — minimum seconds between student messages.
• Interactive Threads post frequency — minimum seconds between student pushes (0 = no limit).

Students see mute, cooldown, and join status in the chat status bar during the session.
